"The Harvard-Smithsonian Center for
Astrophysics said in a press release
that "a dwarf fruit tree is still a
small fruit tree, and a dwarf hamster
is still a small hamster." In order to
convince others that Pluto is a planet

to figure out the pros and cons. They let
the audience vote, and the audience
agreed, therefore for them 'Pluto IS
a planet again.'"
Some quarrels never end...
